Acknowledgments

 

Thanks to the entire Angry Robot team for taking a chance on a debut,
with special gratitude to Lee Harris and Mike Underwood for indulging
an impromptu pitch at a busy Worldcon. Caroline Lambe’s publicity
assistance was invaluable, as was the encouragement of Robot-for-a-day
Nikki Walters.

Every first book needs first readers. Josh Sabio and Will Moser kept
me writing when I was still wondering how (and whether?) I’d reach the
end of the first draft.

 

This book needed several other beta readers, too. Thanks in particular
to Jacqui Talbot, Michael Robertson, and Bill Stiteler for their
insightful critiques and writerly camaraderie.

 

Thanks to my agent and advocate, Jennie Goloboy, for shepherding this
book (and me!) through the publication process.

 

Thanks to all the friends and family whose faith and encouragement
kept me going. To my sisters, Sydney Thompson and Julie Lytle; my
brother-in-law, Ryan Thompson; and my parents, Richard and Jackie
Lytle for not making crazy faces when I told them I was going to give
this writing thing a try. Most of all, to Hiren Patel.
